What Grinds My Gears:

When I can’t find the droids I’m looking for.

Haw haw haw!!

I’m still laughing at that line :slight_smile:

(The Stewie Griffin Movie, of course)

I wish I could get a green card to China.

I can’t stand that I don’t stand a chance of winning on line games because the pros have outsourced the low levels to people in China. They got huge factories where people just play video games 12 hours/day 7 days/week, for $200.00/month. I wish I could get a green card to China.

I read about it in the front page of yesterday’s NYTimes.

When someone leaves the salt shaker cap loose.

When people try to get in the elevator without letting the people inside get out first.

When people walk slow and take up the whole hallway.

This pisses me off to no end at school.

It really grinds my gears when people put all their trash behind the ketchup/sugars/etc. on the tables at work, because then there’s a chance I don’t see it when I’m cleaning. :angry:

No you don’t. Assuming for the moment that you are generally in favour of free speech and democracy.:wink:

“Grinds my gears”? Presumably a vulgar colonial expression meaning “irritates me”? Then it has to be people who use vulgar colonial expressions.:stuck_out_tongue:

Think of it as part of driver’s ed. :wink:

It really grinds my gears when you’ve been standing in line for 10 minutes at the market, and then the person in front of you–after all that time–waits until they hear their $ total to start digging in their purse to find their checkbook. Grrrrr.

When people ask me what grinds my gears.

Forgetting to use my clutch.

It grinds my gears that they got rid of prohibition. Well… not all the time, just when I’m serving a bar rush of 100 really wasted and beligerant college students at my resteraunt.

When dumbasses in cars almost hit me when I’m on my bike/unicycle

…when people actually reply to those chain letters :angry: it annoys me so much…

Another thing: Right around where I live there isn’t much traffic, but it seems that whenever I come to a stop sign at the same time as someone else who has the right of way, they always try to be nice and wave me through! GAAAA!!! THERE’S TRAFFIC LAWS FOR A REASON!!!

Nice, Greg! :slight_smile:

People who say “knots per hour” when speaking of the speed of a boat.

Polls, polls, and more polls. Also, people who type in large, bold print.

People who call them selfs vegitarians and eat fish.

You know what really grinds my gears? This Lindsay Lohan. Lindsay Lohan with all those little outfits, jumping around there on stage, half-naked with your little outfits. Ya know? You’re a… You’re out there jumping around and I’m just sitting here with my beer. So, what am I supposed to do? What you want? You know, are we gonna go out? Is that what you’re trying to - why why are you leaping around there, throwing those things all up in my, over there in my face? What do you want, Lindsay? Tell me what you want? Well, I’ll tell you what you want, you want nothing. You want nothing. All right? Because we all know that no woman anywhere wants to have sex with anyone, and to titillate us with any thoughts otherwise is - is just bogus.
